More quotes by Michael Scott
Negotiations are about controlling things, about being in the driver's seat and make one tiny mistake you're dead. I made one tiny mistake, I wore women's clothes
Michael Scott
You don't call retarded people retards. It's bad taste. You call your friends retards when they are acting retarded.
Michael Scott
Often the greatest act of courage is admitting that one has made a mistake...Follow your hearts. Protect one another, trust one another, because, at the end of the day, all of these people want something from you, or want you to do something for them, or be something that you are not. Your own responsibility is to one another.

I love inside jokes. I hope to be a part of one some day.
Michael Scott
The most reward experience is having another writer come up to you and say that they started writing because they read my books. That is how writing as a profession continues: readers becomes writers who inspire new readers.

Great change always comes down to the actions of a single person.

There have always been people like you, Nicholas Flamel. People who think they know what's best, who decide what people should see and read and listen to, who ultimately try to shape how the rest of the world think and acts. I've spent my entire life fighting the likes of you.
Michael Scott
When you've lived as long as I have, nothing much surprises you.
Michael Scott
What you call magic is nothing more than an act of the imagination fired by the senses, then given shape by the power of your aura.
Michael Scott
He is many things - dangerous and devious, cunning and deadly, a good friend and an implacable enemy - but he comes from an age when a man's word was indeed precious.
Michael Scott
I'm not a magician. I'am an alchemyst, a man of science, though perhaps not the science you would be familiar with.
Michael Scott
I never base characters on real people - you can get into so much trouble that way!
Michael Scott
There really is no difference in the actual writing or plotting. I choose to tell different stories for the younger reader and, of course, I would never put sex and extreme violence in a YA book. But writing for adults and children requires the same care and attention.
Michael Scott
There is no such thing as an appropriate joke. That's why it's a joke.
Michael Scott
I'm always reading. Here's where an ebook reader really comes into its own. When I travel, it allows me to carry a huge chunk of my library with me. Usually, when I am writing one project, I am researching the next or beginning to pull together the material for the book after that.

The line between confidence and arrogance is very fine, Josh,” Flamel said quietly. “And the line between arrogance and stupidity even finer. Sophie,” he added, without looking at her.

For me, the favourite chapters have always been the last chapters in the books. I knew exactly how each book would end - and how the first chapter of the following book would begin. I knew I wanted to leave the readers with answers - and a bunch of new questions!
